The Coming Persecution of Christians Has Already Begunby Michael SnyderThe “coming persecution of Christians” has already begun. It is
already here. So why is the mainstream media in the United States
almost totally silent about this phenomenon? When some politician
somewhere around the globe inadvertently offends homosexuals or Muslims,
it instantly makes headline news. But very few Americans are even
aware that it has been estimated that 100 million Christians are currently facing persecution and that approximately 100,000 Christians
die for their faith each year. As you are about to see, Christians all
over the world are being burned alive, beheaded, crucified, tortured to
death and imprisoned in metal shipping containers just because of what
they believe. This persecution goes on year after year and it is
steadily intensifying. But the governments of the western world and the
mainstream media are almost entirely ignoring what is happening.The information shared below is extremely graphic. Some of the
websites that normally run my articles may want to think twice before
posting this one. The reason why I have included such graphic
information is because I believe that it is very important to accurately
communicate what is truly going on out there. People need to know the
reality of the holocaust that is happening. The following are short
excerpts from news stories about incidents of Christian persecution that
took place in 12 different countries around the planet. Sadly, the
vast majority of Americans have never even heard about any of these
stories…#1Christian Taxi Driver Pulled Out Of His Cab And Beheaded In Egypt:
One attack involved taxi driver Rafaat Aziz Mina, who was slaughtered
in an Alexandria street just because he was Christian. In his early
twenties, he was killed on 16 August by a mob of Islamists who took to
the streets after news reached them about the military’s action against
their camps in Cairo.An amateur video
shot by a resident shows a mob blocking cars, checking the passengers
inside. When Aziz’s taxi was stopped, one of the protesters noted a
cross hanging from the rear view mirror. Quickly, the young man was
dragged out and kicked, punched and beaten to death. For several
minutes, the extremists defiled the lifeless body kicking and spitting
on it, concluding their performance by cutting off his head, which they
left on the sidewalk.#2Tortured To Death By U.S.-Backed Al-Qaeda Rebels In Syria:
In late October, the U.S-supported “opposition” invaded and occupied
Sadad for over a week, till ousted by the nation’s military. Among other
atrocities, 45 Christians—including women and children—were killed,
several tortured to death; Sadad’s 14 churches, some ancient, were
ransacked and destroyed; the bodies of six people from one family,
ranging from ages 16 to 90, were found at the bottom of a well (an
increasingly common fate for “subhuman” Christians).#3“Slaughtering Us Like Chickens” In The Central African Republic:
Thousands of Christian civilians sought refuge at an airport guarded by
French soldiers Friday, fleeing from the mostly Muslim ex-rebels with
machetes and guns who rule the country a day after the worst violence to
hit the chaotic capital in nine months.When several French helicopters landed at the airport, people sang
with joy as they banged on plastic buckets and waved rags into the air
in celebration.Outside the barbed wire fences of the airport, bodies lay decomposing
along the roads in a capital too dangerous for many to collect the
corpses. Thursday’s clashes left at least 280 dead, according to
national radio, and have raised fears that waves of retaliatory attacks
could soon follow.“They are slaughtering us like chickens,” said Appolinaire Donoboy, a Christian whose family remained in hiding.#4Shot For Refusing To Convert To Islam In Libya:
A group of Muslims robbed two Egyptian Christians living in Libya, then
tied up and shot them to death after the two Copts refused their demand
to convert to Islam, relatives said.On a rural road in Derna District in northeastern Libya on Wednesday
(Sept. 25), a group of Muslims surrounded Waleed Saad Shaker, 25, and
Nash’at Shenouda Ishaq, 27, demanded their belongings and started
beating them. During the strong-arm robbery, the relatives said, the
Muslims demanded that Shaker and Ishaq recite the shahada, the
declaration of conversion to Islam. When the two Orthodox Coptic
Christians refused, the group of Muslims tied them up and shot them.#5Head Cut Off In Front Of A Camera For Converting To Christianity In Tunisia:
A young man appears held down by masked men. His head is pulled back,
with a knife to his throat. He does not struggle and appears resigned to
his fate. Speaking in Arabic, the background speaker, or “narrator,”
chants a number of Muslim prayers and supplications, mostly condemning
Christianity, which, because of the Trinity, is referred to as a
polytheistic faith: “Let Allah be avenged on the polytheist apostate”;
“Allah empower your religion, make it victorious against the
polytheists”; “Allah, defeat the infidels at the hands of the Muslims,”
and “There is no god but Allah and Muhammad is his messenger.”Then, to cries of “Allahu Akbar!”— Allah is greater!”—the masked man
holding the knife to the apostate’s throat begins to slice away,
severing the head completely after approximately one minute of graphic
knife-carving, as the victim drowns in blood. Finally, the severed head
is held aloft to more Islamic slogans of victory.#650 Christians Burned To Death In Their Pastor’s Home In Nigeria: Fifty members of a northern Nigerian church were burned to death in their pastor’s house.The attack by armed gunmen was only the first in a 12-village spree
of violence that left over 100 dead in northern Nigeria’s Plateau State,
a region that had previously been outside Islamic terrorist group Boko
Haram’s operational area and is the largely Muslim Fulani tribesmen’s
homeland.Yet Boko Haram claimed responsibility for the attacks and threatened even more violence.#7Two Brothers Crucified For Their Faith In Ivory Coast:
Two peasant brothers were brutally crucified on “the example of Christ”
as forces loyal to Ivory Coast President Alassane Ouattara continue to
target perceived supporters of his ousted Christian predecessor, Laurent
Gbagbo.Raphael Aka Kouame died of his injuries; incredibly his younger
brother, Kouassi Privat Kacou, survived the ordeal. The pair were badly
beaten and tortured before being crudely nailed to cross-shaped planks
by their hands and feet with steel spikes on 29 May.

With the building demolished, the mob began to beat the pastor, his
mother and church members, who were able to flee and went into hiding
for the night. The extent of their injuries is not known.#9Suicide Bombers Kill 81 At A Church In Pakistan:
A pair of suicide bombers killed 81 people outside a church in
northwestern Pakistan on Sunday in the deadliest attack yet on the
country’s Christian minority, reviving fears that the newly installed
government is powerless to stop the resurgent Taliban’s reign of terror.The attack on the 19th-century All Saints Church in Peshawar took
place as hundreds of worshippers were streaming out of the church,
police chief Mohammad Ali Babakhel told the newspaper Dawn.“The suicide bomber tried to attack the people, but when he was
stopped by the police, he detonated the bomb,” he said. “The second
blast was carried out inside the church.”#1080 Lashes For Drinking Communion Wine In Iran:
An Iranian court sentenced four Iranian men to 80 whiplashes for
drinking wine during communion and possession of a satellite antenna.The court issued the sentence in the city of Rasht on October 6.
Christian Solidarity Worldwide, an advocacy organization for religious
freedom, reported on the punishment last week on its website.

#11Imprisoned In Metal Shipping Containers In Eritrea:
A representative of Open Doors, a charity that works with Christians
under pressure for their faith, said that many Christian men and women
are being held in underground dungeons, metal shipping containers and
military detention centers.

“They
face exposure, hard labor and insufficient food, water and hygiene.
They are regularly denied medical treatment for malaria and pneumonia
contracted while in prison or diseases like diabetes, hypertension or
cancer that they may have arrived with,” said the representative.

#12Publicly Executed For Owning A Bible In North Korea:
Eight people — their heads covered with white bags — were tied to
stakes at a local stadium in the city of Wonsan, before authorities shot
them with a machine gun, according to the source.Wonsan authorities gathered a crowd of 10,000 people, including
children, at Shinpoong Stadium and forced them to watch the killings.

For the moment, things like this are not happening in the United
States. But you would have to be extremely naive to think that it never
could happen here.Animosity toward Christians is rapidly rising in this country.
Anyone that spends much time cruising around the Internet can see that
very clearly. In fact, some bloggers recently suggested the castration and murder of Christians here in the United States.It might seem easy to dismiss those remarks as the ramblings of a few
deranged individuals, but the truth is that our own government is now
labeling Christians as “extremists” and “potential terrorists“. For a large number of examples of this phenomenon, please see my previous article entitled “72 Types Of Americans That Are Considered ‘Potential Terrorists’ In Official Government Documents“.All over the planet, the persecution of Christians is growing. And
our own government is now demonizing us and characterizing us as a
“threat”.The years ahead are going to be very challenging for those who choose
to be Christians. If you are a Christian, I hope that you are getting
emotionally and spiritually prepared for that.
